Acknowledgments: This Digital Baptism Index for the Zichydorf Roman Catholic
"Queen of Peace" Church was created by Glen and Shirley (nee Weiszmuller-Geiger)
Gibbard of Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. Glen and Shirley dedicated four months of
their time to manually generate this digital index from the microfilm records distributed by
the Family History Center, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. All village
researchers, genealogists, and Zichydorfer descendants extend sincere thanks to Shirley and
Glen for this generous contribution. The Gibbards specifically requested that "if any
recognition should given, it should go to the person (likely one or more priests) who
compiled the (church record) index in 1843." Special thanks goes to John Movius of
FEEFHS, who coded the index into an HTML Web page for the Internet.

NOTES:

1. The index was created as close as possible to the original, so all the spelling differences
that occur are as they appeared in the original. Some of the differences can be attributed to
the Magyarization at that time, the use of the alphabet and spelling over the years, and
occasionally to the interpretation of the register/index writer.

2. In about 1832, it appears that a different index book was used for a few years and the
paper had disintegrated, so that parts of the index were missing. In these cases, the register
was used to reconstruct the index. So the index is as complete as it can be without recording
the entire register.

3. The index will confirm for the researcher or genealogist the names of Zichydorfer and the
year in which they their were baptized. This information can then be used to consult the
microfilmed Zichydorf baptism register available at the Family History Center and focus in on
the original baptism register record.

4. The microfilmed baptism register record provides detailed information including the
entire date, age of the child, names of parents and Godparents, as well as the name of the
priest.
